A TIME TO MOURN

This is a very sad day for Eddie and I........Lizzie is gone, she has been leaving us a little each day this week, we took her to the vet three time. this week.....but today was her last visit, he told us it would be the best thing for her....he gave her the shot and she laid her little head on my arm the way she went to sleep many many nights.....but this will be the last time, she is now in her finial resting place and to have to see Eddie dig that was so hard and putting her there was too, we put most of her little toys in there with her and wrapped her in her blanket. Eddie and I are trying to hold on......but it is so lonely around here, we miss her so very much, she has a place in our hearts that only she will ever have, we both Love her sooooo much. We need all the Prayers we can get.

ECCLESIASTES

2; 1, To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven.

4, A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance.

TUESDAY

Lizzie, our dog has not been feeling too good the past few days, so today Eddie (hubby) took her to the vet, he said it is congestive heart failure, caused by old age, he put her on Lasix 40 mg 1/2 pill a day and Enalapril 2.5 mg 1/2 tablet eavery 12 hours. It is not the easiest thing to get her to take her medicine, but we fooled her this afternoon with a little ice cream, the vet said she would be needing to go out a lot more for bathroom breaks. What can I say, she is our baby and spoiled rotten, I mean really spoiled and she knows she has us wrapped around her little paw.
At work Bobby was not feeling good either, he was having chills and sick on his stomach, he called before we left this afternoon and said he was feeling a little better.


PSALM
51; 1 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.

SUNDAY

I talked to our Grands that live away from here today, they seem to be doing good, I ask Eddie Van how he was doing in school, he said his report card was awesome. Pearl said she was doing great too. Lori always ask "Can I talk to Paw-Paw"?, he is usually out side, that is where he was today, she wanted to know what he was doing out side, he loves to get out and just walk, we have some woods behind the house. My Daughter-in Law said she had been visting my blog and said she wanted to set up one herself. I finished quilt # 4 today only 2 more to go. I will post pictures after Christmas, I am really enjoying making these and can't wait for Christmas. I talked to Caitlyn earlier this week she made the principal's list, so all the Grands are doing really good this year, Thanks be to God!!!

1 CORINTHIANS
15; 58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.

SATURDAY

I had a pretty busy day although I haven't really been feeling too good, not really sick, just not up to par. I did get the Christmas ornaments made that I will be giving my two sisters and their families and my brother and his family, I also made one for Hubby and me, they are all alike, I am calling them our Family ornament I found the instructions at

http://www.make-stuff.com/projects/quiltball.html, I also made them a set of coasters and this is were I found the best little TUThttp://allsorts.typepad.com/allsorts/2006/11/crisscross_coas.html , this was a couple years old, but I just saw it, she has some of the cutest things on her blog, I love to go see what pretty things she is doing. You will see I made four sets of coasters alike and the last one is different, it is for a friend of mine.

PSALM 96

1; O Sing unto the Lord a new song: sing unto the Lord, all the earth.

2; Sing unto the Lord, bless his name; show forth his salvation from day to day.

WEDNESDAY

This has been a cloudy day, but a Blessed day. However first of all at work my sewing machine messed up, it is sick, my needle shaft is stripped, they are going to order one, so in the mean time I will use another one, it works really well, but all my stuff is at my machine, I will be so glad when it is fixed.
After I got home from work , I decided to work on the quilt blocks for a block lotto I am in, it is a double four patch block, we are each doing at least one pair, here is my pair:



I talked to DDIL2's Dad today he is doing good now, he got out of the hospital yesterday, he said his heart had jumped time, they had another word for it but he said that is what it was. Thanks for the Prayers for him. GOD IS SO GOOD !!!!



MATTHEW 21:22
And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing ye shall receive.

Monday

Monday, what can I say, I did have a Blessed day. First at work we had a hard time trying to get the clocks all set right, we finally got them set and then one of them was off, so we set it again thought everything as going good until time to go home, that was when we found out something most be wrong with the battery, we will wait until tomorrow to put a new one in. Today for lunch we went to the little Chinese buffet, I now have a new favorite Chinese food, coconut chicken, it is soooooo goooood, yes!!! I eat to much, but, did I say it is soooooo goooood.
Please keep my DDIL2's Dad in your Prayers, he is in the hospital, they are doing some test, his blood pressure keeps going up and down and so does his heart rate. The man I work for had to go see his Mom this morning too, she fell and broke her hip and they had to do surgery, so please remember her in your Prayers too.

JAMES
5:16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

Saturday

This has been a good day, I did the laundry, I hung all of it out but the towels, they are in the dryer now, I got the other clothes washed and hung out early, they dried real good today. The weather has been great today, it was nice and warm. I also did a little other house work. Besides that I finished clipping the rag quilt cat for Caroline, one of our four year old Granddaughters and I cut out a rag quilt bear for Pearl our five year old Granddaughter.

PSALM
150: 6 Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord.
